18 months fun - we love our Chatty Ella


It's been a while since I've sent out a decent update on the Bunn.  As you might expect, she is growing, running/skipping and gabbing like crazy.  Her little personality gets bigger every single day, which makes life interesting as we never know what new little Ella quirk we get to deal with every morning.  Usually they are lots of fun, so we have no complaints :)

The Bunn continues along with a few of her favorite activities, namely finding bags around the house (shopping, grocery, garbage, ziplock, mommy's purse - you name it) and filling them with things.  Things like mommy's W-2 form, wallet, favorite lip gloss, Target receipts and (strangely enough) a bottle of ketchup.  We call her the Bag Lady.

On the less fun side, Ella's eczema has returned on her belly and back.  Luckily it doesn't seem to bother her, despite all of her regular and intensive belly button examinations.  We're pretty much banning Johnson and Johnson baby products from our house as even their 'gentle' formula is too harsh on the short one's skin.  Chemicals will do that to you...  instead we love Aveeno's Eczema treatments and especially adore local Australian Scents natural soap.

Oh yay - and we can finally put Ella's hair in pigtails :)  So Adam and I can die happily.  Yes, it's that big of a deal to us - the most hilarious hairstyle ever!!
